Noob V4 PAM 111

Nowadays, big watch is very popular, Panerai is the brand that exactly meets this trend. A lot of watch fans like Panerai, not only because of its rich history as a military watch for the Italy Navy, but also its tough and strong design attracts them deeply. If you love Panerai but do not have an enough budget, there are some entry-level models at much more affordable prices, they are PAM 005, PAM 111 and PAM 127. When it comes to our fake watch industry, these entry-level PAMs are also the models which various factories are willing to replicate, because they could be completed in a very high quality level, just like the replica Panerai PAM 127 made by Noob factory, we have given its review before. Today, I want to introduce another good replica Panerai watch from Noob, it reference number is PAM00111. Actually Noob made the replica of this Panerai watch six or eight years ago, they improved the dial details and movement of the replica every year, so now this V4 edition is the ultimate version of PAM 111 which Noob released in 2018. Every reader here who is interested in buying a Panerai replica watch wants me to recommend one for them, I will absolutely advise them to buy PAM 111 or PAM 127, because they have been 100% the same as original.

Let’s talk about the movement first. Genuine PAM 111 is equipped with Swiss ETA 6497, while this movement has been discontinued in production for many years. Now even some dealers online claimed that their Panerai PAM 111 replica uses a real Swiss ETA 6497, they are cheating you. The Noob V4 PAM 111 is equipped with an Asia ETA 6497-2, which is based on a Chinese manual winding movement. Noob installed new plates for this movement, the plates have been molded according to genuine ETA 6497, so their shape and decoration are very closest to genuine. Look at the dagger swan neck regulator, it is set in the right position and works the same way as that of genuine ETA 6497. Blue letters such as “OFFICINE PANERAI” are engraved on the plate first, then are filled with blue ink. Having been tested for years, this Asia ETA 6497-2 works very stable and is considered to be the best manual winding movement used in replica watches.

The case is made of 316L stainless steel, case diameter is measured to be in 44mm. The iconic crown bridge is eye-catching. The case, including bezel and lugs, is polished. While the crown bridge on right side is brushed. The replica follows 1:1 case design and finish, the crown is pressed down by the lever tight, crown tube has the same construction as genuine PAM 111, so the 1:1 case design on the replica PAM 111 guarantees a perfect water resistance. Case back is polygonal, it is screwed down and the central crystal uses sapphire. I have seen a lot of Panerai replica watches, including Luminor Submersible PAM 382, I do not suggest you wear these replicas PAMs when washing your hands or swimming, but for this Noob V4 PAM 111, it is not a problem for you to wear it when swimming, you can even dive with it.

The crystal is Sapphire, like genuine, the crystal face features colorless AR Coating on one side. The dial is black in sandwiched, no date function. Small second hand is working on the subdial at 9 o’clock. The dial has a strong green lume, I have checked the replica’s dial lume at night, its color and intensity are very close to that of genuine dial. Noob factory claimed that they use genuine Super-LumiNova C1+C3.

The band is made of genuine brown calf leather, it is fitted with a polished pin buckle that is engraved with word “PANERAI” in correct depth.

Do not wait now, this PAM 111 replica from Noob is the best version in our market. I think in the future Noob will not publish any improved edition any more. The stocks of Noob V4 PAM 111 will last.

Replica Panerai PAM 690

Blue is the embodiment of ocean, which perfectly matches the navy watch theme of Panerai. Panerai seldom used blue color in their dial design, so this PAM 690 with blue dial has a certain value and rarity. The blue color highlights the marine element of Panerai, it also increases the elegance, making the watch look attractive.

This PAM 690 replica watch made by Z factory uses 47mm Radiomir 1940 case that is made of 316L stainless steel, 47mm is a classic size of Panerai watch and it also meets current big watch trend. Blue dial is sandwiched and features big hour markers, small seconds subdial reproduces the classic design of Panerai. Vintage golden hands and hour markers are applied Super-LumiNova, to ensure the dial still readability at night. The band is made with unprocessed calf skin leather, it keeps the original texture and color of the leather, there is OP logo on the band.

Original PAM 690 is 500 limited in quantity, the watch was firstly introduced in 2016, now you can not buy this watch from a Panerai boutique because it has been out of stock for a long time. So here Z factory brought a perfect replica of PAM 690. Although the watch has a 47mm case diameter, it does not look that large on your wrist because there is no crown bridge.

Above blue dial, there is a Plexi crystal that looks super clear, the crystal is not flat but domed, it is very difficult to make such a dome-shaped crystal, I mean the factory must spend more money to make this bubble crystal. If you accidentally broke the crystal, we can send you a new one, but it will be very expensive. So, you must be careful when wearing this watch.

PAM 690 Crystal Back

PAM 690 belongs to Radiomir 1940 series, 47mm case is made of 316L stainless steel that is polished, including the round smooth bezel. The replica watch is equipped with an Asian 6497 manual winding movement, which beats 216000 times per hour, Z factory replicated this movement according to the outlook of P.3000. You can see the inner movement through display case back, the blue engravings on movement plate and jewels color are completely the same as genuine Panerai P.3000.

PAM 690 ASSO Brown Leather Strap

The replica has a brown leather band that made of the same calf skin leather as genuine watch. It feels very soft. Blue dial, golden hands and brown ASSO leather band make this Panerai replica watch not only look fashionable, but also with some retro style.

Now, Panerai replicas are basically manufactured by two main factories, they are KW and ZF. KW is the earliest factory that made good quality Panerai replica watches, their new independently developed clone P.9XXX movement has reached a new level in stability and accuracy. The best automatic Panerai replica watches now come from KW factory. However, when it comes to replica Panerai with manual winding movement, Z factory is the leader because they make the best clone P.3000 movement.

Replica Panerai Luminor 1950 PAM 127

Panerai has their own characteristics, except the big dial, you will also have a deep memory of its crown bridge even you are not familiar with this brand. PAM 127 is a limited edtion model in Panerai family. Domed sapphire crystal, cushion-shaped Luminor case, flat and wide bezel, crown bridge, golden hands, you can find all these classic Panerai’s features on this PAM 127. In our market, two factories have replicated PAM 127, they are Noob and ZF. Today, I will introduce the latest version of replica PAM 127 made by Noob, I think it is the best PAM 127. However, the one from ZF is also good, but I love the Noob PAM 127 more because Noob has a much richer experience in manufacturing 1:1 high end replica watches.

There are two difficulties in replicating Panerai PAM 127. First, the domed or bubble crystal. Two or three years ago, those PAM 127 replicas in our market did not have the correct domed sapphire crystal, some used flat sapphire crystal, the others featured a domed mineral crystal, not sapphire. So, along with the rapid development of watch-making technology, Noob factory is able to make this correct domed bubble crystal on PAM 127, the crystal is not only sapphire, but also has the right domed shape. The crystal on this Noob replica PAM 127 is in a perfect condition, it is highly transparent, besides, check the dial carefully from different angles, the Arabic numerals of 3, 6, 9 and 12 will not deform and disconnect. None of other factories could make such a perfect domed crystal, except Noob.

The second challenge in making this Panerai replica watch lies in the movement because PAM 127 has a see-through crystal case back. If the movement would not be cloned to be exactly the same as genuine, it is easy for some people to find that you are wearing a fake watch. However, Noob has made four times of improvement on the Asian ETA 6497 movement on this PAM 127, to ensure it has a very close outlook to genuine and could work accurate. I posted several movement photos below, after seeing the perfect decoration on movement plates, are you still able to find flaws that distinguish it from genuine? Actually, I can’t. Steel gears have exquisite sun-ray polishing, two important components Y-Incabloc Shock Protection System and Swan Neck Regulator are directly imported from the Switzerland. Although the movement is a clone ETA 6497, it has extremely high accuracy and stability.

If you love big watches and want to get your first replica watch, please think about PAM 127. It could be more suitable to become your entry-level Panerai watch than PAM 111 or 005. The 3-6-9-12 black sandwiched dial is very classic and has a strong Swiss lume on hour markers and hands, golden hands exactly match with the brown color of leather band. Besides the crystal and movement, there are also a lot of other things worth being talked about, but I do not want to write too much here, the photos say everything. Please check its specification at last.
